Ligand Design in Rh(diene)-Mediated “Carbene” Polymerization; Efficient Synthesis of High-Mass, Highly Stereoregular, and Fully Functionalized Carbon-Chain Polymers

Stereoselective polymerization of “carbenes” from diazo esters mediated by [(L-prolinate)RhI(Me2cod)] allows the formation of highly syndiotactic, fully functionalized carbon-chain polymers with the highest reported molecular weights in high yields, thus providing the best currently available cataly...

Summary:Stereoselective polymerization of “carbenes” from diazo esters mediated by [(L-prolinate)RhI(Me2cod)] allows the formation of highly syndiotactic, fully functionalized carbon-chain polymers with the highest reported molecular weights in high yields, thus providing the best currently available catalyst for this new reaction.
